The Stickley family adventures started in Hawaii in 2005 when Cris and Emilie were married. The real excitement began in May 2008, when Nova was born. 2 short months later, our little June-Bug joined the family from all the way in Vietnam. The next few crazy years included Emilie being deployed to Afghanistan, while Cris and the girls moved back to Hawaii, then a long year of living apart (and a lot of trips across the Pacific Ocean), while Emilie remained in Colorado to complete her Army committment, and Cris had to stay in Hawaii for his job at the University.

In the summer of 2012, little Jude joined our family, and the whole gang reunited for good in Hawaii!

Follow our adventures, as we try to keep track of life with our 3 crazy kids, while keeping our friends and family updated on the happenings here in Hawaii!

Lots of pictures

The graduating class of OB/GYN residents at Tripler! It's been a LOOOOONG four years, but don't we look so happy to be counting down our last days?
We had a great weekend! I didn't have to work the whole weekend, and we got to spend lots of time playing, and hanging out. We also spent lots of time shopping for the giant birthday bash! I am EXCITED about this week, because my mom arrives in 2 days! it is going to be awesome to have her here. Although she spent every single day for 2 months last summer watching nova while we were stranded in michigan, she hasn't gotten to spend a whole lot of time with the girls since then, so we are super super excited to have her in Hawaii for almost 2 weeks.
Anyway, back to the pictures.
Dad teaching his girl how to throw a perfect spiral - Left Handed if you will notice (JBug is clearly right handed, but cris is the sole lefty of our family, and hoping to convert one of his right handed girls. He works hard on getting them to do things left handed. I tell him he is gonna mess with their heads, but he is persistent)

About 100 times a day we hear "one more". this is the new favorite thing for both Juneau and Nova to say. EVERYTHING is "one more", which they say enthusiastically while holding up 1 finger.
Dr. Nova, professional athlete, showing off her multiple skills.
I think Nova is starting look more like her Dada
Juneau showing her "Shaka" skills.
This is the 2nd season for our pineapple garden.
Juneau discovering Dandelions


Juneau doesn't get in trouble very often, but when she does she knows to go get her "time-out" mat and put it in the corner. The whole thing is unbelievably comical, especially when she puts her little face right in the corner.

It gets cold here in the early morning, so the girls usually wear a cute little sweater when we are going out and about

It is always so sad when i realize that Juneau doesn't look like a baby anymore, but more like a little girl.
Ready to head out to Starbucks for Saturday morning treats
